This is the encoder helper funcs that I was talking about. Maybe it is better if you
send a new, cleaner version and we can continue the conversation/review there?

Where can you not do this? Inside drm_writeback_connector_init_with_encoder() you
don't need to do that, as the function is intended to initialise a writeback
connector using a provided encoder that has been already initialised. Inside
drm_writeback_connector_init() you will call these functions using the internal
encoder pointer that you have added in the series.

I think if you keep the vc4 patch in patch 4 and move the rest in here it will make
more sense. Again, I think a new series cleaned up might help others to review as
well (specially Laurent).
